Pond's Resort

We stayed in the one bedroom cottage with kitchenette - everything was very spacious and the staff were very friendly. The cottage itself (#2) had a large deck with a BBQ and is located right across from the barrel saunas and right on the edge of the river (beautiful view). Inside the decor was beautiful - very rustic. Wasn't the cleanest due to mouse droppings and spider webs but we were please with the amount of space. Kitchenette had a mini fridge, microwave, toaster and coffee maker. There were also utensils, glasses, plates and cleaning supplies provided. Nice large stand up shower with good water pressure. Sitting area had a Roku TV with access to Netflix and Prime and an electric fireplace. The cabin also has a heat pump but it was very hard to regulate temperature as it was either too hot or too cold as it's not insulated well (there were areas you could look right outside between the logs and around the door. Our only major complaints on the cottage was that we had mice and constantly were sweeping up droppings and the bed was terribly hard and very uncomfortable to sleep on. Staff at the Jack Russell restaurant on site were quick, friendly and a gem to deal with. We did not use barrell saunas but they were very spacious and clean looking. Lots of parking also.

I love Ponds cabins. The view is awesome. Very comfy bed. Excellent place for friends to gather for kayaking the river. Communication was very good. The new barrel sauna is a nice addition to this place. I will definitely be coming back to sail the Mighty SW Miramichi River again.
